1. A remote control system comprising:
- a remote control device including at least one control operative to develop at least one button control signal in response to activation by a user; and
an interface device including a logic circuit responsive to said at least one button control signal and operative to provide at least one device control signal via a wired connection to an electronic display device having a display and one or more buttons to control an image on the display, the at least one device control signal operative to control an application running on the electronic display device to determine which button of the electronic display device is activated to control the image that is displayed;
wherein the interface device is connected to the electronic display device via a docking port connector of the electronic display device.

Abstract
A remote control system, set forth by way of example and not limitation, includes a remote control device including one or more controls operative to develop at button control signals in response to activation by a user. An interface device is responsive to the button control signals and is operative to provide device control signals via a wired connection to an electronic display device. The device control signals are operative to control an application running on an electronic display device.

18. A method for remotely controlling an electronic display device, the method comprising:
-
providing a button control signal from a remote control device in response to a control on the remote control device being activated by a user; connecting an interface device including an interface circuit to an electronic display device via a docking port connector of the electronic display device, the electronic display device having a display and one or more buttons to control an image on the display; and receiving said button control signal at the interface device, decoding said button control signal using a digital processor of the interface circuit to derive a device control signal, and providing the device control signal to the electronic display device, the at least one device control signal operative to control an application running on the electronic display device to determine which button of the electronic display device is activated to control the image that is displayed. - View Dependent Claims (19)
